JT

You may be wondering who or what JT is? Well JT is really Jethro Tahigwha Heimel-Heck - the youngest member of our tribe at five months. JT is teaching me a lot. He is a lot like Digger who is now 17 and those that remember Digger as a baby remember he was a hell yung! JT is so full of life. He does things that just baffle and amaze me. He will climb to the highest spot and then just through himself off and bang onto the floor. I ask myself how can a cat be so dumb to just let himself fall from such a high place but - then I thought for a moment. JT does not realize it is crazy to do that - he is just having fun with no abandon. Something that we forget to do as we get older in life. JT will take on the meanest cat of our tribe with no hesitation. To him it is just another challenge in life - even though we as his mothers see it as suicide! He loves all of his brothers and judges none of them. If he wants to take a nap he will curl up with anyone one of them - even the ones that do not like him too much. Slowly but surely JT is winning over the ones who at first did not like him. He is doing this by not judging and continuing to show love and warmth no matter how they treat him. Just think if we took this philosophy out into society. Think of all the conflicts that could be avoided and how many friends we could make. If we did not see our foe as our enemy we may actually make a friend. My challenge to you is what can you learn from your "enemies". All the people we dislike for whatever reason have something to teach us - so what can you learn today?
